280 AI with RL26??

[Buska]

Anyone tried this combo? I can't find anything on it but I'm sure some of you have experimented.

If you have, I'm curious what your results were with the 140-168 range.

Thanks guys

I don't know if RL26 will get any more velocity than RL23 in this case. RL23 seems a bit more temp stable over 84* in mine too.

I have found very good accuracy with 26 vs 4831sc. I have not measured speeds. They were very similar but it meters well which I think is where it won. They were very close accuracy wise but all the 26 loads were .2ish better consistently. I was working in the 140-162 range and found 150's the best for my rifle. (ttsx and lrab)

Mind sharing your charge weight? I hope to run the 175 Berger in my build.

In my rifle, this is very close to a maximum load. Start lower and work up. It has sped up to 3030fps since my barrel has broken in. But accuracy remains the same.
